It is not too often that you turn on the news and hear an uplifting story, but there is a great one in the news right now. A non-profit organization called Brides Across America has teamed up with bridal salons and wedding designers to give free bridal gowns to military brides, helping them to have their dream weddings. Learn more about this incredible act of philanthropy and how you can become involved, whether you are a bride-to-be or someone looking to help a military bride.
Brides Across America was created because it is an all-too-common fact of life that planning a wedding when you are in the service or marrying a man in the armed forces can be very difficult. Weddings may have to be rushed because of a deployment. Or couples may have to wait a long time to have a wedding because one or both of them is deployed far away. Money can be tight too, especially when a wedding has to be planned very quickly. The idea behind the wedding gown giveaway is to help women who are either active duty military or whose fiances are in the armed forces to have a beautiful wedding while wearing a gorgeous gown.
